Jeremias 37:19 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 37:19

Where [are] now your prophets that prophesied unto you
Your false prophets, as the Targum; what is become of their prophecies? where is the truth of them, to which general credit has been given? where are they? let them appear and defend themselves, if they can, from the charge of lying, and of being false prophets? or where are they? tacitly suggesting the different circumstances of him and them; he, who was a true prophet, was laid in a prison; they, who were false prophets, were caressed in the palaces of the king and his nobles, and in favour with the people in general: saying, the king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against
this land?
gave out that the king of Babylon would never invade the land of Judea, or besiege the city of Jerusalem, which proved false; and still they had the front to say, that when the siege was raised, he would never come again; whereas he was then returned to it, and was now besieging it; so that here were notorious falsehoods delivered out by them.

Jeremias 37:19 In-Context

17 EntĂŁo o rei mandou buscĂĄ-lo, e Jeremias foi trazido ao palĂĄcio. E, secretamente, o rei lhe perguntou: “HĂĄ alguma palavra da parte do SENHOR?”“Há”, respondeu Jeremias, “vocĂȘ serĂĄ entregue nas mĂŁos do rei da BabilĂŽnia”.
18 EntĂŁo Jeremias disse ao rei Zedequias: “Que crime cometi contra vocĂȘ ou contra os seus conselheiros ou contra este povo para que vocĂȘ me mandasse para a prisĂŁo?
19 Onde estĂŁo os seus profetas que profetizaram para vocĂȘ: ‘O rei da BabilĂŽnia nĂŁo atacarĂĄ nem a vocĂȘs nem a esta terra’?
20 Mas, agora, Ăł rei, meu senhor, escute-me, por favor. Permita-me apresentar-lhe a minha sĂșplica: NĂŁo me mande de volta Ă  casa de JĂŽnatas, o secretĂĄrio, para que eu nĂŁo morra ali”.
21 EntĂŁo o rei Zedequias deu ordens para que Jeremias fosse colocado no pĂĄtio da guarda e que diariamente recebesse pĂŁo da rua dos padeiros, enquanto houvesse pĂŁo na cidade. Assim, Jeremias permaneceu no pĂĄtio da guarda.
